170 Pubs and Bars found in or around Fleet Street

The Tipperary is a quaint, narrow, old (it celebrated its 400th birthday a short while ago) pub, with a rather welcoming wood-panelled interior, impressive mirrors and a fine shamrock design mosaic floor. If you're interested...

This pub is something of an institution on Fleet Street. In the heyday of the Street of Shame, you could regularly find the great and (occasionally) the good gathering here to do the business of Fleet Street. Sadly (for some)...

City wine bars can divide opinion amongst drinkers - either loved or hated, for us it can sometimes conjure up images of the Square Mile's tacky excesses. However, cast aside any of this, as El Vino in Fleet Street is the real...

Following yet another a refit, Ye Olde Cock Tavern has moved away from the bland look of before and brought itself back into a more 'traditional' guise, with a mix of dark wood furniture. Don't be misled by the name of this pub...

A Hogshead until mid-2008, this is a vast barn of a pub in a converted office building just off Fleet Street. It's often fairly full, but has a spacious feel which - unlike some Slug & Lettuces - makes for a reasonably...

Formerly the Mucky Duck, a remnant of old Fleet Street, this smart venue spreads over two levels. The 'pub' occupies the ground floor, and offers a wide range of regular beers including Lowenbrau, Red Stripe and San Miguel, as...

Another lively pub in this area, it's a bit bright and brash compared to some of the seasoned veterans in the area, but nevertheless it's OK. A conventional range of beers with pretty decent Guinness, friendly service and a...

The Old Bell is one of the legendary Fleet Street pubs when this area was well and truly the street of shame. Sadly, those days are long gone and so have the marathon drinking sessions - printer and pundit alike. When you go...

Popular J D Wetherspoon pub in Chancery Lane, next to the Law Society. This used to be the Union Bank and the main banking hall forms a very large, high-ceilinged, public bar that is choc-a-bloc at lunchtime with hungry lawyers...

A little history first - the Punch Tavern on Fleet Street was originally called The Crown & Sugarloaf but was renamed in honour of the founders of Punch magazine who met here. Back in the 1990s The Punch was relaunched but...

This pub was, until recently, an identikit O'Neill's just by Ludgate Circus. Young's certainly don't hang about - the place was closed down and refurbished (minus live sport) to within an inch of its life, all in the blink of...

Another Fleet Street legend, where the law and the media used to meet. With the departure of the media, it's now been left in the hands of the local legals and office workers. Over the years it's had a makeover or two but it...

Newly reopened after a fire, we looked hard but we couldn't honestly see anything outrageously different. Okay, the downstairs bar/restaurant is now called 'The Catch' - and the seafood is good (the fish and chips is worth a...

More modern bar than traditional pub, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. And being Greene King, the beer is still kept to a high standard. Fortunately, this now means their standard IPA and a guest ale. It's definitely...

Once upon a time, even though it's in the heart of hectic Holborn, this quiet, smallish pub was far enough off the beaten track for it to be a refuge for those looking for an undisturbed drink. Now, it's in the hands of the...

Just off Fleet Street, the Hoop and Grapes is a cosy nook amidst the corporate canyons. The landlord's kept up the standards set a while back, and we're glad to see it's still worth visiting. Although the interior is...

We've known this pub for a lot of years and it hasn't really changed in all that time. It's still a bit of a barn in the bottom of a tower block, the walls are still covered in the eponymous cartoons and the beer's still...

This Grade II listed pub was a legendary Fleet Street drinking haunt when the Sun was based over the road. It's so tied into that era that the small downstairs bar is called the "Vincent Mulchrone" room (a famous...

This one's been tidied up again, and we have to say it's looking good these days. There isn't much in the way of original fittings, however good the pub looks from across the road, which is a shame, really, particularly as the...

Well off the beaten track in one of the quiet, quaint alleyways which are a feature of the Inns of Court, the Devereux is a pub enhanced by its atmospheric location. It's a solid, traditional pub - quite appropriate for the...

Unfortunately, the Punch Tavern is only half the pub it used to be. For some reason, hard to work out at the moment, the pub was divided in two a few years ago. Now only half of the magnificent Victorian interior is accessible...

The Melton Mowbray is a Fuller's Ale and Pie pub and usually, it's a very full Fuller's Ale and Pie pub. It has all the usual stuff you'd expect from the chain - Fuller's excellent beers (plus other non-Fuller's items including...

The Edgar Wallace is a handsome, but deceptively pokey pub once you get inside, which, as a result, gets gets crowded pretty quickly at the usual post-office times. Given the area, the number of suits should come as no surprise...

pubdog 17/11/2001 - previously rated: 3pints.This pub has been doing the Irish thing for years and seems to be happy with its lot. A decent pint of Guinness (obviously) and a conventional range of other liquid refreshment are...
